Hey there!
I’m trying to get FMOD to work in my C (not C++) project under Windows 11 with both MSVC and Clang using SDL2 (if that matters). I barely do anything before calling FMOD, so I’m pretty puzzled on what is going on here.
I only call:
FMOD_System_Create(&system, FMOD_VERSION);
Just to be greeted with:
FMOD error: Error initializing output device.
Upon further digging with FMODs debug handlers, I came across this:
ERROR: FMOD_OS_Init()@C:\buildagent2\work\570ad728b1678096\core_api\platforms\win\src\fmod_os_misc.cpp:104║Frame=#0000000║Thread=0x2A1C║
ERROR: FMOD error: CoCreateInstance returned 0x80040154.
I figured this has something to do with OLE32, which is where my knowledge about the Windows API ends.
Because I have seen this in the examples, I also tried to call:
CoInitializeEx(0, COINIT_APARTMENTTHREADED);
But no luck.
Any ideas?
